Similar to the GTK::Simple treatment. All used files are already hosted, so this should be ready to go.

I'm looking to port several other Raku binding to windows, including freetype, libxml and fontconfig.

I like the approach, but prefer to factor out the logic from Gtk::Simple into a common module for fetching DLLs and managing dependencies rather than replicate it across several modules.

WRT the repo, In some cases, such as libxml, and iconv it'd also be handy to have corresponding .h files for development purposes.
